Municipal Judge.
With' W candidates tor judge of
municipal court, the average voter is
going to find himself-wondering how
hei'sto ttidow which man is the best
fitted for the position. Fortunately,
all of the candidates have had some
training and practice in the law.
The municipal court, or'police
court as it is better known, has
jurisdiction over such cases as asmtis
sault and battery, disturbing the
peace, resisting an officer, failure to
obey city ordinances, etc. The
principal qualifications needed in a
police judge are a knowledge of law
and court procedure, sympathy for
the unfortunate and patience.
The problem which confronts the
voter, then, is to seek out the qualifi
cations of each candidate, measure
him by the needs of the office, and
vote accordingly.
Ito the Good of The People.
Among-the- bills -now before the
'legislature*'6ne id more distinctly
for the" good of the -people than the
.Dunn road measure,- Increasing the
estate levy to one mill and incidental
ly relieving St. Louis county of thePaul
hindrance impbse'd"by the old law
limiting this county's levy to one
quarter of one mill.
The advantages of good roads have
'been held up to public view so often
that the subject is much frayed about
the edges. But for all that it is-a
live one, particularly in ^localities
such as this county presents.
Within the last few years the sub
ject has been handled not only as a
theory, but in actual practice, and it
is possible now to go 'into places
where road improvements have, been
made on an extended scale, and com
pare results with conditions that ex
isted before the improvements were
made.
In several places in our own state,
within recent months, reports have
been made on the effect of road im
provement, and in every one of them
It has been demonstrated that the
advantage in facilities for transpor
tation has brought more trade to
commercial, line, and been a saving
to farmers and others who use the
highways. Such a result is inevit
able, for a man with produce to sell
or who is seeking to -buy something
will drive to a place ten miles away,
it the roads are good, rather than td
a locality only six miles away if the
roads are bad. And he can make the
longer trip with less loss of time and
less wear and tear on his team and
wagon than he could, the shorter one
Everybody uses the roads/ or at
least uses articles that have -to be
transportated over them, and any
thing that helps to bring better high
ways means just that-much gain for
the people.Duluth Herald.
Unfair. Burden 6ii the State
Governor Bbernart says there are

P. M. Riirgdai of the board of
control says that. there aire probably
200 inmates.in every ..state...insane

Relatives, who do'- hot

happy way--out -of their difficulty.
The boaTd -of control, ttf correct this,
has urged therpassage of'a "law com*

in stopping the practice, complained

STANDARD OF THE WORLD
In the marketing of its product, the Cadillac Company adheres in
'-the .Veatest possible degree to certain-well Jdeftned principle*., 'I-
The Cadillac is anhonestly conBtrat^d^car^sOldat-an honest price,
a price which gives to the user the greatest real value obtainable
in a motor car. Its list price is its selling price, a price which af-
fords but a legitimate margin of profit to the maker and to the dis-
tributor.
The Cadillac Company is in a pesition to choose its distributors.
In doing so its aim is to exercise the saire discrimination as in
selectingthe materials whic enter into its product. In choosing its
distnbutors.as in choosingits materials, it has in mind the interests
sand' welfare of Cadillac\users because it knows that upon the
^service and satisfaction rendered to those users depends the future
of the3adiUa car.
Thexainn of the Cadillac Company is that its distributing organiza-
'/tion shall be composed of business houses which are a credit to
themselves, a credit to the Cadillac Company and a credit to
the Cadiiliccar, houses that realize and act upon the realization
that iit the sale of a car their duty to the purchaser instead of being
finished has only begun.
In following these standards, the Cadiilic Company believes that it
.can-say to the purchaser that he will find back of the Cadillac car
a **service" which is not equaled in the motoring world.
